When I planned this workout it was just going to be one circuit. I thought the reps would be high and with going through the workout without rest, that it would be a good booty builder for an at home workout.
Then as I got going through the workout, and completed it, I was kinda feeling a little bit of beast mode kicking in, and even though my glutes were already feeling it. I went in for a second round.
If you don’t often work your glutes specifically, this workout may take a little toll on your buns. Keeping that in mind, you can decide if one or two circuits are best for you. 🙂
Now let’s get booty building!
EQUIPMENT:
+ exercise mat
+ kettlebell(s) (I used 6kg and 4kg)
Complete the following reps for each exercise, completing reps per side when applicable.
Go through the circuit without any rest.
When you’re done the first circuit, rest 1 – 2 minutes and complete a second circuit.

SQUAT + KETTLEBELL UNDER KNEE PASS x50 (alternating legs)
KETTLEBELL SINGLE LEG STIFF LEG DEADLIFT x25 (per leg)
